Are your FA's just too lazy? Your FA's realize that these meals are trashed if not bought right? I'm not an expert in sales but I believe studies have shown that sales increase if you actually ask someone if the would want something.

This is the biggest issue for RAH right now. You can’t pay someone 24K a year, and expect them to go out of their way for the passengers. FA’s are the face of the company, and will have a direct affect on how the public see’s the new Midwest. Anyone know how many YX FA’s will be staying?
